- the means for controlling energy of feed light shown in the fifth embodiment may be applied to the system configuration of FIG. 1 , FIG. 2 or FIG. 4 . More specifically, the power sourcing equipment 110 and the powered device 310 of FIG. 1 , FIG. 2 or FIG. 4 are replaced by the power sourcing equipment 110D and the powered device 310D of the fifth embodiment, respectively.
- the optical fiber 250A or 270 that transmits the feed light 112 is replaced by the optical fiber 250E of the fifth embodiment.
- the feed light 112 and the signal light 319D may be transmitted through the optical fiber 250.
- the detection signal 319 may be converted into the signal light 319D by the transmitter 320, the signal light 319D may be converted into the detection signal 319 by the receiver 130, and/or information of the detection signal 319 may be contained in the signal light 325.
- the present disclosure is applicable to a powered device, a power sourcing equipment and a power over fiber system.
